EWB 359 BLACKL SABBATH'S DARK YEARS WITH CHAMP MORGAN

Champ Morgan returns to us this week.  Black Sabbath is an iconic bansd; Tony Iommi created heavy metal guitar and the rhythm section of Bill Ward and Geezer Bulter has influenced generations of musicians over 50 years.  None of this si news to anyone, but what about Sabbath in the 90’s?  Morgan and I talk about Sabbath’s “dark years.”
